This substantial original work combines painting with sculptural mixed-media relief, creating an extraordinary three-dimensional architectural landscape.
The composition depicts a dreamlike city at night, densely arranged with buildings, winding illuminated streets, a central fountain and waterfront. Deep shades of teal, turquoise, blue, charcoal and green are punctuated by glowing orange, gold and yellow accents, producing the impression of windows and streetlights shimmering through the city.
What distinguishes this work is its remarkable dimensional construction. Numerous buildings, rooflines, windows and architectural details project outward from the painted board, creating pronounced depth and shadow. Textured passages and heavily worked surfaces further enhance the sculptural quality, allowing the appearance of the artwork to change depending upon the viewing angle and surrounding light.
The painting is presented in an impressive vintage frame with a wide black inset and warm antiqued-gold detailing that complements the colors and architectural character of the composition. See less
